Georgia Judge Upholds Weekend Ballot Returns Amid GOP Challenges

The Republican National Committee has filed a federal lawsuit against several Democratic-leaning counties in Georgia, including Fulton County, for allowing weekend absentee ballot returns, claiming it violates state law and the Constitution's Equal Protection Clause. This legal action follows a state judge's decision favoring Fulton County, which argued that the law in question pertains to drop boxes, not hand-delivered ballots. The lawsuit is part of a broader legal battle over mail ballots in key swing states.
